[R] Problem of running R console from Java on linux box

[ZhaoWei]

Great, "--vanilla" works!
Can you please tell me what this parameter means?
And, it works with the execuatble(/usr/lib/R/bin/exec/R). I'm wondering
is it possible to do the same with the shell script(/usr/bin/R), anyway
when you type "R" in command line, it means the shell script.

Thanks again!
